What was that night

Am I there

In the storm of your sleep

Have the you shaken me lose 

From your evening hair 

I've left memories there

And wrapped my face 

In the taste of jasmine and rose hips

Have you unfurled me from your lips 

Do I exist 

Am I there 

Burning in the cotton of your cigarette 

Smoked past the golden ring that marks regret 

Snuffed out in the overflowing ashes of every other lover 

Did I shine 

For just a moment in time 

Am I on your mind 

Am I there 

When the wind blows strange 

And the swing on your porch 

Allows you to sway with your feet up

Can you taste me 

At the bottom of a midnight cup 

Of coffee and whiskey 

Am I on the tip of your tongue
